It could be just my eyes, but they seem “whiter” and more abundant, when Molasses is used, but what a mess that stuff makes in winter temps. Surprisingly, more ladies in the other tent doing almost as well.
4 contenders in training make me want to clear the decks of all but the 4 and see how much tent they grow into. two 4x4x6.5 in play.
Valentine’s Day pollination was successful.
She has seeded pods.
Males got axed last week.
Pollen collected drying, I hope.
Flowers were tweezer pollen sac introduced.
It worked. Multiple swollen pods.
Opened a female flower and found a seed. Proud parent I am, again.
Still keeping her in clone tent.
Cant get closer, sorry.
Found a cousin for the beauty queen.

Set up clone station tonight. Couple of candidates placed in cups on seedling mat covered with plastic dome. 50watts lighting ppfd 30.
Also cleaned dead leaves from a few plants.
Maui Waui and Gold Leaf sharing seedling tent. Both in flower doing great, except sharing 5 gal dirt.
Vipar Spectra 600(300watts) at top of 2x3x5.5 tent.
PNW weather cold, but IL, IN. and OH are getting serious snow storm.
Stay warm and safe, “it a jungle out there”
PNW raining, no surprise there. Cant work outdoors, today.
Made a double brew-batch Kahlua (currently 1-gal sitting for a month or two, flavoring).
Then cooked this 5oz from the fall harvest.
Two one OZ jars and one Hundred gram jar of Kief-mined shake.
Vacuum sealed jars after oven time. Pings heard for all three sealing.
Cooled and in the freezer awaiting Everclear washing.
@noddykitty1 or @Spudgunner
The re-veg experiment has had some surprisingly interesting results, so far.
My current fear is that the re-vegers are too slow growing or too bushy.
I fix bushy and make more slow growing, a true no-win process.
To date, I could afford tent space, but now, with some beauty queen possible contenders,
I need space. I grow short and WIDE ladies.
I moved plants and cut some branches. In a week or a day, i will cull and open grow space sideways.
this makes me happy. I’m stealing this.
Well today was productive (posted above) and enlightening.
I was continuing to support the growing of the re-vegers, until today.
The bush plants I thought could be grown and kief mined (pure GOLD), but they seem to be too problematic during my dry routine. The bush wont dry and/or the oldest trichomes dont look as good as clean buds. SO, they go!. Soil conditioning is always a positive and learning was great.
@noddykitty1 had it PERFECTLY NAILED with the trim more bush, originally, advice.
TBT, I took multiple hacks of them and probably retarded them more than just re-veging. But I got a re-vegers to get pollenated and today I mined 5 seeds, from the dead stuff. Not saving for kief mining, only seed mining. I can still use this process in the future. thanks to all who shared.
I want to enjoy 20 before wing suit flying.
@DEEPDIVERDAVE Not that I’m mining for them, but in 3 jars of my Bruce Banner autos that were part of the Moon Drop last year, I have found 14 seeds. Hoping they were from nanners on one of the two plants, then they’d be femmed autos. Hoping it wasn’t a stray male in the neighbourhood! I figure it that was the case, there’d be a LOT more than 14. Might get a couple more, still have 1/3 of a jar left!
I wouldn’t seed mine except for two reasons
1.Seeds needed for experimenting
2. Family and friends
The outdoor grow results were unexpectedly great and I don’t need seeds, any more.
I Mined 20 ounces of outdoor weed from summer (not the best flowers/no flowers on 10 ounces).
200-400 seeds minimum, so far.
You and NK-! are invited to share some.
Somebody’s been smoking in my lung room.
Clone station set up recently has seedling heating mat.
Good plan since lung room is 55 degrees (F).
Plastic dome coves the group of 5 clones in development.
Little light got the plan going.
Today I noticed the mat was cold. Guess plugging it in would help.
However, i found this tiny beauty.
Which is amazing because she came from a failed attempt at dirt growing and was found flat 5 days ago
Today, she is not flat and has the tiny root on a flowering female who is moving towards the light and becoming un-flat. Light a big one for celebration.
Emptied half the Flower tent, vacuumed and rotated, Rubic cube style, right one position. the plants.
the two 27 gal bins are a mother to move.
Moved the T6 intake to become the T6 crossover from bottom of second tent under UIS controlled independent programed operation.
Ambient intake available with tubing extensions for light blocking.
Second tent on opposite 11.75/12.25 scheduled On/Off, respectively.
Flower Crown now at 20 inches.
Dimmed Vipar Spectra V1200 to 275 watts (Flower switch only, no veg lighting)
Moved HLG350R up to 60%, for last hour of the day.
Expecting a day or two adjusting then increase lighting or chop-cull-time.
Moved the A6 dial controlled fan to the Isolation tent 2x3x5 for continuous exhausting.
Dial can be manually adjusted, else a Cloudline 67 could parameter control independent operation.
I am done for the day.
I trimmed her bottom fan leaves (dead sponges). and today,
all that shows, grows!.
Standing tall (without Viagra).
She is pretty, and now has a second root developing longer than an eigtht of an inch.
I can see it, and know it is promising. So, I did start another clone last night.
Addicted to cloning, still.
Found another male seedling from my fall seed collection, a threesome in a solo cup with remaining female seedling (third member was male and got chopped last week).
Just black taped the bottom of the clear container.
Also noticed newest root (#2) actually has multiple fingers starting to protrude from
its 'Thorn-like-spike shaft"
Damn, the smoke is getting better, these days.
@noddykitty1 2023 VERSION Re-Veger 2.0 and with your invaluable tip, trimmed down more to avoid bushing, like last time.
